I don’t frequent night clubs, since a lot of them have violent crime surrounding them and I don’t dance, so I can’t help much on that front, BUT we’ve got some neat bars!!

Hot Club isn’t a club, it’s more of a dive, but it has a dope deck and is just so iconic Providence. It’s my favorite and they have surprisingly good food (basics like burgers and chicken tendies). They do have a DJ on the weekends when it gets later, too, so you could still theoretically dance. No cover fee.

Boombox is also a lot of fun, if you like karaoke. No cover fee but I believe they charge $1 per song.

EDIT: for food, not sure what kind of cuisine you’re looking for but some of our favorites are Los Andes (somewhat overhyped but good Peruvian and Bolivian — huge portions), Tallulah’s Taqueria (think Chipotle, but fresh), and Troop (funky vibe, dressed up street food — they usually have a DJ or live music on weekends, check their social media).

Not sure if it’s your thing, but we also have a lot of breweries. My personal favorites in the city are Bayberry Beer Hall (be warned it’s on the pricier end, but they also have good food) and Moniker.

As far as activities go, the RISD museum is free on Sundays and actually really well-curated.
